> Rx loop inside _recv_raw_pkts_vec() ignores nb_pkts argument and always
> tries to receive RTE_I40E_VPMD_RX_BURST (32) packets. This is a violation
> of rte_eth_rx_burst() API and can lead to memory corruption (out-of-bounds
> writes to struct rte_mbuf **rx_pkts) if nb_pkts is less than 32.
> 
> Fix this by actually using nb_pkts inside the loop.
